KEY MESSAGES

Issued at 115 AM CDT Wed Jul 15 2026

Impactful weather is not expected for the next 7 days. Mild temperatures will become warmer towards the weekend. Daily shower and thunderstorm chances remain quite low (10%).

SHORT TERM

(Today through Thursday night) Issued at 115 AM CDT Wed Jul 15 2026

Below average temperatures and very low thunderstorm chances are expected for the next couple of days. High pressure remains north of our region, which leads to a relatively quiet weather period for the Panhandles. This current weather pattern allows for high temperatures to hang out in the 80s and lower 90s today and tomorrow. Thunderstorms will be diurnally driven due to weak forcing aloft. As long as convective temperatures are met, a couple of isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible for the next few afternoons and evenings. Instability and wind shear should be weak enough in the short term period for severe thunderstorm chances to remain very low.

LONG TERM

(Friday through Tuesday) Issued at 1226 AM CDT Wed Jul 15 2026

Weather headlines remain largely unchanged in the extended period. Near to above normal temperatures will persist through the rest of the week and into the weekend. Rain chances remain low for the CWA, but some isolated showers and thunderstorms cannot be ruled out for the next several days.

The upper level pattern remains somewhat stagnate until we get to the end of the week. Guidance still shows uncertainties on the placement of the upper level ridge towards the end of the long term period, so PoPs will continue to fluctuate. Even still, PoPs should remain low for the next 7 days. High temperatures will slowly trend upward in the coming days. Highs should rise from upper 80s and eventually settle into the upper 90s, with a few 100s possible for locations near the Canadian River Valley and Palo Duro Canyon.
